Feedback: Helpful Quest System changes

Just wanted to point out something that might actually help improve the quest system not feel so hard to use.

When picking up multiple quests and you go to an area where the quest is located aside from the blue animation that you are in a location that one of the quests in your log is for. It would be nice if the quest for that one specifically raises to the top of the list with some kind of highlight. This way you get visual indication of what quest is nearby and it makes questing overall a better experience.

    Questing with a group can be very tricky with the current group delivery system, the idea is interesting but it causes a lot of confusion and honestly I believe it is glitching several quests.

    A friend and I finished over 10 quests together, which 2 of them glitched and disappeared to one of us when turned in by the other person, both of us got the XP but the next step of the quest for one of us straight up disappeared and the person that got the glitch can't get the quest anymore.

    Turning in quests fast while the other person is coming to the NPC or in the middle of a dialogue apparently can break the quest too.

    Would be easier if the group gets shared progress to the quest but each person is in charge of turning in and getting new quests no matter what. Even if one person is just killing x mobs for fun but still helps progress for his friend that needs x mob for his quest.
    I've lost the count of how many people forgot to get the new quest because they thought they got it but it was just the other party member turning in.

    Cheers

    • Quests that trigger based on a players locations can be very frustrating to abandon, since they will just be regiven to the player when they walk over that location again.
    • The quest menu on the right side of the screen should have an option to always stay open.
    • There should be a minimize option for quests you dont want to look at, both on the right side of the screen, and on the map/quest screen.
    • If a quest wants you to claim a reward, it should shine to grab the players attention.

    It would be really nice if the minimap quest objective indicators had an up or down arrow next to them if the objective was above or below you on the Z axis. In areas where there could be/are caves and so on, this can be very useful. It's something WoW added pretty late in its lifespan and is something I've thought was a great addition.

    I haven't even parted but that does sound pretty frustrating sounds like it wouldn't hurt to have a feature that lets a party pickup a quest or turn in a quest together that way its not a cluster of bad

    I've tested it and some quests that did glitch while in party didn't glitch while solo. I am not sure why it is.
    Solution was to do quests together but not in group just to avoid.

    I would LOVE a way to sort the quest and add custom notes on the map.

    When picking up multiple quests and you go to an area where the quest is located aside from the blue animation that you are in a location that one of the quests in your log is for. It would be nice if the quest for that one specifically raises to the top of the list with some kind of highlight. This way you get visual indication of what quest is nearby and it makes questing overall a better experience.

    It would be awesome if the quest log had a setup. People who wanted to set the text size, have it move the quests by current zone, hide quests if they are more than x number of levels higher than you, ect.

    Years ago in WoW I used the addon Carbonite. It would show you where a quest objective was for multiple quests are by circling the area where the objective is. The current way puts a dot but I don't see a way to have it show multiple quest objectives.
